functional and good value By mayanwhitewater from guatemala on 10/31/2009 Cons: Neck gather has poor fit, Not breathable Describe Yourself: Enthusiast Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This dry top fits me well and stays dry. Don't expect Gore-tex breathability though. Also I find the neck protector not well designed/fitted. Can't beat it for the price though.
By Larry Joy from Crescent City, Ca on 10/28/2009 Pros: Breathable, Comfortable, Dries Quickly, Durable, Easy To Put On And Take Off Best Uses: Colder Water, Paddling Describe Yourself: Enthusiast Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I have a Kokatat GMer drysuit and sometimes its just a little much on warmer days. This Extrasport drytop and a pair of drypants work great together to keep you dry when kayaking, or running a raft.
Almost Perfect for Packrafting By Richard from San Carlos, CA on 10/27/2009 Pros: Comfortable, Dries Quickly, Durable, Easy To Put On And Take Off Describe Yourself: Enthusiast Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: The light weight of this paddling top, in combination with the Adjustable neck, make it ideal for packrafting. When backpacking with your packraft you can open the neck and the skirt for maximum ventilation.
It is not as breathable as eVENT or the latest generation of Gore-Tex. Offsetting this is its light weight and flexible feature set.

By pgiorda from Great South Bay, Long Island on 10/23/2009 Pros: Comfortable, Durable Best Uses: Boating, Paddling Describe Yourself: Enthusiast Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Uses: kayaking and sailing
The size runs a little smaller than the chart.
Yes it is hard to get over the head and hard to get to get your hands out, but that is too be expected if you want it waterproof.
Overall I would definitely recommend it and buy another.
By Gnar Factor from Saranac Lake, NY on 10/22/2009 Pros: Breathable, Comfortable, Dries Quickly, Durable Cons: No mouth guard for Zipper, No Side Pockets Best Uses: Boating, Paddling, Skiing, Snowboarding Describe Yourself: Enthusiast Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I have used this jacket as an everyday rain jacket, a paddling jacket, as well as a ski jacket. I ended up sewing a piece of fleece over the zipper to protect my lips on colder days, but other than that, I love it. A+ product.
By Russ from Boulder, CO on 10/22/2009 Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Meets my needs perfectly.

Good for indian summer evenings By greenscales from carlsbad, ca on 10/18/2009 Pros: Breathable, Comfortable, Dries Quickly, Easy To Put On And Take Off Best Uses: Boating, Paddling Describe Yourself: Enthusiast Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I have had it out a few times with changing weather conditions/seasons. Kept me dry but more breathable than my longsleeves, so I did not overheat when paddling long distances.Very easy on/off, so I will be using it when the waves are bigger or early launches when I know the mornings/water is cold, but the days are hot.
